The Cat

Bit of a weird post.

Looks like Les was ahead of his time in stating we have the best midfield options in the league.

Solid win. Excellent first half, would have been nice to grab another goal while we were really on top. Second half defended well. Barely gave them a chance. Forster only really had to make one save. Diallo so impressive. Centre backs had good games too.

Romario out for Saints according to Keown 🤣

I used to live next door to her. She was actually alright and really helped me with my politics A-Level despite our many disagreements on the subject.

We had them in as part of a department review. Some guy in his early 20's swanned in occasionally, said "synergy" a lot and left after a few weeks without really doing anything. We did had have one meeting with a woman from Deloittes who was the most beautiful person I've ever seen in the flesh. At least this least provided some value for the £30k we paid them for suggesting we implement largely the same plan we'd already favoured.

Yeah, that was very weird. A lot of that smacked of jealousy because he had an inside track on the club. He goes up Sholing all the time. I saw him and Steve Grant up there a few months ago, the same day we drew at Chelsea.

Taxi driver. He had a gig driving Saints players around for a while including Pelle who he used to help out quite a lot as a sort of unofficial player liaison officer. I haven't seen Essruu for a while but we went to a lot of the away Europa games together.

Early goal for Fulham. They've really improved since the start of the season.

Watched the game and then flicked through the match chat. Many different comments to how I saw it which was a comfortable win against a well organised but limited team. Watts did OK. N'Lundulu has good presence but lacks first touch, nice to see him score. Chauke wasn't that impressive but was playing out of position. Vokins took up good positions without seeing much of the ball. Stephens and Bednarek strolled through the game. People that say Stephens is League One standard really don't have a clue as to what that actually means. Even though he was only on for 10 minutes and playing out of position I thought Jankewitz was good. Nice passing, good movement and close control. Would like to see more of him. Long was terrible.

Cases going down which is good, and that decrease will carry on now the lockdown takes effect on them. Deaths will stay high for a while as will the number of people in hospital which won't reduce as quickly as it did in the first wave because treatment is getting better and people are in there longer.

He was just waiting for assurances that Hummel would be our next kit supplier. Now that's ironed out he's good to sign.

Probably the most comprehensive analysis you'll get from the excellent Swiss Ramble Twitter account. Strap yourselves in.

Spoke to my sister earlier, one of her team visited a positive Covid patient aged 50 the other day who was complaining of feeling unwell. She tested him and said she was concerned about his oxygen levels but by this time he was talking quite easily and moving around. She eventually persuaded him to go to hospital to get further tests. A couple of hours later after another job she thought she'd see how he was. By this time he was in ITU. 3 hours later he was dead.

Bit of a genius in his time, made some absolute incredible tunes including the best Christmas album ever (which, in a Saints related nod included The Bells of St Mary's) Took some of the techniques that were pioneered by Joe Meek to a totally new level, and alongside Brian Wilson they revolutionised music production. Obviously a complete nutter but his legacy will live on in the music industry forever.

I'd say there's a space for it, much like there's one for 6music. Both overlap a bit with Radio 1 but go further in exploring genres more deeply than Radio 1 which is basically chart fodder for the masses, especially during the daytime.

Jenas on MOTD said it was a foul and he said that because it was.

Tovil was an absolute hole when I lived round that way. I worked part time in the Tesco there when someone shat on the floor and it got dragged around the shop under a wheel of a trolly.

Covid has had many serious implications but the lack of opportunities for ice cream at the top of the A34 on route to an away game is one that hasn't been discussed enough.

Surprised they didn't go on about out pre-match huddle.

Madison's shot was from about 3 yards away and he leathered it. McCarthy wouldn't have even seen it. On the other hand Scmeichel's save was quite comfortable. McCarthy's save from Vardy near the end was brilliant. Absolutely perfect technique.

Complete agree. We have so many crucial players out and a bench full of kids yet played alright against a decent team and their ref.
